Something different. Let's inspire each other!

Here are the rules.

  1. I will post one track to share. 
  2. The next person who posts must be inspired in some way (could be from the music, lyric, style, instrument, title, vocals, whatever) by the track I posted. 
  3. The person after that can be inspired by either track. 
  4. The person after that can be inspired by any one of the previous three tracks, and so on. As posting goes on, there are more tracks that you can be inspired by. 
  5. You can post only one track at a time and you must include the title of the track that inspired you. Optionally, you can include how that track inspired your track. 
  6. Do not post a track inspired by a track you posted previously. Be inspired by others. Tongue
  7. You do not have to listen to every track posted but must be inspired by a track that is posted in the thread.
  8. To give enough time, I will keep the suggesting period open through June 26, with final nominations due by June 27, and voting to begin once all nominations are final.
  9. You can suggest up to three tracks over the nominating period.
  10. Artists on PA are allowed but tracks should come from an album with fewer than 50 ratings.
  11. When voting, you can vote for any three except your own.
  12. Have fun!

Here's the starter track. I think there's enough going on that it should inspire someone in some ways. I had posted this song before in Greg's (Logan) one YouTube video thread but it wasn't this version. This track I enjoy a lot. I guess it would be called neo-psychedelic with 60s-70s Cambodian pop/rock. The band started out as a cover band of 60s-70s Cambodian pop/rock before writing their own material. They have songs both in Khmer and English.

Dengue Fever - One Thousand Tears of a Tarantula

I love this, and it almost immediately reminded me of Doringo, whose 2020 album was one of my absolute favourites of 2020.

Thanks for inspiring me to get that one back out, and into my player. Here’s the first track:

This will be fun...

Both you tracks inspired me to this one, but maybe George's one a bit more. I've already brought forward this band, but hey, this is what my inspiration led me to.
What your bands do on the guitar, mine does on the saz... And, there's also a multicultural inspiration behind it (but not really American...) but especially an inspiration from the past: here you can hear some Turkish 60s folk, 70s psych rock, 80s synth pop, or whatever it brings up in you... (this one was originally composed by Çekiç Ali)

Great start! I enjoy both of your tracks and I am inspired with two different tracks but will "bite my tongue" so others can post. But so tempting. I remember Altin Gün from prior - enjoy that exotic blend - and I will look into Doringo - cool surf music from Croatia.

As it were, if I had a done a more traditional poll, I was thinking of a theme of psychedelia and psychedelia influenced and these all fit.

6. You can't be inspired by any track you posted previously.
On a philosophical level I strongly disagree with this. TongueWink

Hmmm... this may be even a bit too close to the flow of the previous ones, particularly the Altin Gün one, and I'm also slightly worried that I may have proposed (but not nominated) this in an earlier poll, but anyway, here are the 3 Mustaphas 3 with Anapse To Tsigaro.

That's awesome, George! It can't get any more interactive than this, can it?!

I got inspired by your chosen band's name "Dengue Fever". Musically it's something quite different, though.

Dengue Dengue Dengue ft. Sara Van: Guarida (Album: Siete Raices, 2016)

Note: There is an age restriction on YouTube for some reason. I hope you can still watch the video. If not, please let me know.

Dengue Dengue Dengue are an audio-visual duo from Lima. They are part of the current alternative Latin folktronica scene. Their musical explorations range from psychedelic cumbia to dub, from salsa to footwork, from tribal to techno.

People may think that they chose their name because of the once actual tropical dengue fever, but it doesn't have anything to do with that. Dengue is a Peruvian slang term meaning quite the contrary, love of life, celebration of life, at best with music and dance of course. :)

-------------------

The rhythmic, very percussive and oriental music posted by Christian reminded me of this piece, which I consider a masterpiece, both for the music and for the text and for how they are associated. You already know the voice of the singer, it is always him, Giovanni Lindo Ferretti (ex CCCP, then CSI then Litania, here in the PGR group), but by now you know that I am obsessed with some great Italian authors (Guccini, De André and Ferretti - on the other side, Springsteen and Nick Cave), after all I invented these polls just for share those musicians we grew up with.
Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

You're right! And you can help me!

I am old! I'm 51.

And as I got older, instead of keeping up with the music of the moment, I went back to delve deeper and deeper into the music of the sixties and seventies! Actually, I don't know much about the music of the 2000s, so I'm also here to meet new authors ... but I'm very strict and selective, just like the old ones!

(just in June 2021 I broke my knee for the first time ... this year marked by two bone fractures with various circulatory complications made me realize that I am no longer young, and maybe it has made me too old! i need to rejuvenate from all points of view)

Being 50 doesn't mean you're old, it just means that you must find new ways to keep yourself in the loop, provided you are interested of course. Wink This current poll is a good example of how that could work in real life too. As for the evaluation criteria, it depends on what it is. A new genre or development of a genre you can only judge if you are familiar with it to some extent. You cannot compare apples and oranges. I mean, you can only approach new things, if you are ready to open up. - I'm basically interested in both, current and older music, regardless of the genre or origin, with a few exceptions of course. You can still have your preferences but even these can change over time.

Your accident was for sure a tough experience, esp. because it was aggravated by this pandemic situation. But now that the worst is over you can look forward to the future with confidence! Luckily the summer holidays are round the corner so you can take your time. Smile

Ha, we're veering into different territories now. Nice! I'll take you further...
Lorenzo's punky new wave track by Morphine led me to this punky nu jazz track by The Comet Is Coming. And, if you never liked rap, you will like it now!

^Nice!

I was also inspired by Lorenzo's track by Morphine (their album Cure for Pain was one I listened to a lot back in the 90s) in a different, yet similar way. I had nominated a track by Soul Coughing for the spoken word interactive poll. Morphine inspired me to this track by the former lead vocalist Mike Doughty.
